“Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there. If I take the wings of the morning, And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, Even there Your hand shall lead me, And Your right hand shall hold me. If I say, ‘Surely the darkness shall fall on me,’ Even the night shall be light about me; Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You, But the night shines as the day; The darkness and the light are both alike to You.” (Psalm 139:7-12)
Where can you go to get away from God? The Psalmist says, “Nowhere, for God is everywhere.” Go to the most extreme height—heaven—and He is there for saints to enjoy His worship. Go to the most extreme depth—hell—and He is there for sinners to experience His wrath. Go as far east as you may—to where the sun rises in the morning or as far west as you may—the uttermost parts of the sea—and you will find God.
This is what we call the omnipresence of God. God is always present. So, let’s learn about God’s omnipresence this week. That will be our course of study.
